Dr. Skelton indicated the funda- mental difficlllty for Canada Ily in the wide difference between s0- cial and political principles in the Dominion and the Soviet Union.

He also referred to propaganda and said Canada. has not been free from serious interference in her in- ternal affairs by representatives of the third internatlonale. seme- tlmes difficult to distinguish from ithc gwernrnent 02f the Soviet Un- on.

The Canadian delegation believed however that unreserved accept- ance by the Soviet Union in a lct- ter already read. of the undertak- ing to observe all international ob- ligations of the [migiio covenant, must necessarily involve a satis- factory attitude in the future.

Faminine And Suffering

"A further question," Dr. Skel- torn continued. "is the apprehension felt by many thousands in Canada who have relatives and friends in Russia as to the continuance of sufferings and famine which were reported in many districts o1’ the Soviet Union lust, year.

"We believe however that like other members of the League, the Soviet Union will be prepared to do what is possible to relieve dis- tress and sanction nliy assistance. devoid of political bins, which in- dividual citizens of any other mem- ber might desire to tender to those in distress, just as similar sanction would be given reciprocally if the case arose."

Opponents of Russian membership had the first say. Giuseppe Motta. former president of Sivituirland. was their main speaker. Switzerland Holland, Portugal, ivere opposed outright to letting Russia into the League. Others, including the Ar- gentine, said they would not vote one way or the other. It, was left to France old Canada to speak in support.

Motta attacked the whole politi- cal. irligiolls and economic cOn- ceptlri of Soviet Rilssia. Drmocraci‘ was one (l the reasons for Switzer- land's existence. he declared.

GERMANY INCREASING AIR inici

lyiuuiltions E n q u i r y Reveals Hitler Arm- ing In Spite of Ver- sailles Treaty.

By Sam Bledsoe, Associated Press Staff Writer (By Guardian's Spcclill Wire)

WASHINGTON, Sept. 17. — G91‘- mnny under Adolf Hitler was (ll-s- cribed before United States mimi- tions ilivesLigutors today as “dealer- milled to have an air force" dias- pite Versailles 'I‘l'ezlty buns to tllc contrary.

_ A mass of written and verbal test- imony was piled up by the colilmit- tee that Germany had increased enormously its purchases of planes and engines in the United States, and at the same time had coublcd 11ml in some cases tripled the oil‘.- put of its own plants. The Hitler (Governlnenfs determination in re- ward to an all" force was declared to be “taking definite form."

Officials of United. Export Corpor- ation, a subsidiary of United Air- craft and 'I‘l'ansport told senators their shipments into Germany were of commercial planes and parts. TlICY fvblied that they did “not know" when asked if any of the planes had been converted into fighting ships.

Evidence was presented that:

One large aeroplane company in Germany has doubled the number of its employees “since Hitler came into power."

Tile next ranking German com- pnlly has “tripled its employees during the some period,"

Tile United Aircraft Export has sold 176 aeroplane motors, eight lIPFODlELHCS and other Hi1‘ equipment in Germany in 1934.

The i934 business of United thug fnr with Germany amounts to $1,- 445,000, compared with $234,000 in 1932 and olily $69,000 in 4 l-2 years previously.

Pratt and “lllltney officials were on the stand today along with those ni’ United Export. Tile for- mer also gave testimony of sales of air equipment to Germany.

A letter was introduced written by Francis Love, director 0f the United Company in 1933 to F. H. Rcntschlcrn, former Pratt and Whitney director. It said in part:

"Tile present situation in Ger- many is beginning to change from pant conditions, It seems pretty clear that Germany is about ready t0 insist ilpoli reasonable arma- ment programme, Wlllch will un- doubtedly include aircraft,

"It seems reasonable and pos- sible tliat within the next five years the German government will IlPOVidC itself, both for military mid commercial pilrposes, with a con- siderable amount of new equip- merit.

“Naturally, all of this equipment would have to be manufactured in Germany, and I am sure we could IlCVOI‘ sell direct for such a pro- gramme.”

Earlier testimony was given that the Unictd States Department of Commerce secretly had aided in the establishment of a flying school in Chino in 1933 at a time when Sino-Jnprilicst- tension was ncllle.

Letters were presented to show that the Department's Burcnll of Fnrclmi and Domestic Commerce had arranged for United, the Cur- iiizs-tvrlglii. Company and the Douglas Company to cooperate in teaching the, Chinese how to fight in the air.

The Commerce Bureau informed the aviation concerns that the ma‘- ter ivns to be handled “very confi- dentially" in order that it might not attract the atlention of anotheri Oriental natlon~ostenslbly Japan-
